[edit] A welcome from Sango123

Hello, Michael J, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

P.S. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Let me second that! I'd be happy to help, but Sango has always proved to be a terrific help to me, so I'm sure you'll never need me! Still, if you have anything to say, feel free to drop by my userpage. Ciao!--ViolinGirl♪ 12:26, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
I'm glad you liked the welcome! You'll actually find quite a few friendly editors here; Wikipedia is a community as well as an encyclopedia. :) Best wishes, Sango123 (talk) 23:18, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sandbox heading

Hello, Michael J, welcome to Wikipedia. I see you've been editing in the sandbox. That's great - the sandbox is an excellent area to practice your editing skills, but the heading at the top must not be removed.

The sandbox has a special header at the top {{Please leave this line alone (sandbox heading)}}, which is an important notice to new users. Please do not remove this line. Do feel free to edit and type anything below the header on the page, though!

Also, although the sandbox is a practice area, edits in the sandbox must still conform to the good behavior rules that apply to the rest of Wikipedia. That means no behavior which is offensive or irritating to the majority of Wikipedia users. No insulting comments should ever be placed in the sandbox.

By the way, this is your user talk page where any other Wikipedia user can leave you messages. Happy editing! Thanks, Georgia guy 17:09, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Cubicword.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Cubicword.png. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 13:05, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Geofiction Comparisons

I found your website about Lamb's Cove to be very interesting, and I'd be more than happy to discuss Eshraval with you. What exactly would you like to know? I encourage you to join, if it sounds like something you would enjoy.

[edit] Self reference on the Word Association game

Hi Michael, thanks! I've seen someone else use a user page on the game, but it was a friend's, as I recall. I initially thought it might seem a little Narcissistic of me, but then I figured that I should use the first thing that came to my head, and that was me. Sorry to hear someone beat you to putting your own name in earlier...I hate getting beaten to an association when I've got a good one. Phileas 08:43, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair Use images on Talk pages

Re: this entry. Fair use images are to be used on article namespaces only. Please read WP:FU if you have any questions on usage of fair use images.

It was only posted because it was a question about the images — Michael J 16:31, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: NY 17

Thanks for adding the info to NY 17. I've been trying to restore a lot of the content that was removed when an editor believed that the I-86 article was more important than the NY 17 article, so any additions to NY 17 are welcome. Thanks again. --TMF T - C 16:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Baseball diagram

That diagram with the "1st" and "2nd" was stolen from another article anyway. If you'd like to make one with either the traditional defensive abbreviations, or even the 1 through 9 that are used for scoring (such as the ones scorebooks and programs usually have), that would be great. Thanks for the help. -- dakern74 (talk) 00:30, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jamie Lynn Spears

Re your edit here [1] and comment in the edit summary: Thanks for catching that. The reason it wasn't a wikilink is because the original first reference to Britney was taken out by me a few days ago. When I did that I didn't think to wikify the next reference of her. Thanks, Metros232 22:48, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Help_desk#Wrong name on article - but can I prove it?

I've posted a comment you may find useful. It can avoid you a lot of headaches. - Mgm|(talk) 08:57, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IPA font problem

I wish I could answer your question. I'm afraid it's going to be overlooked at the help desk again (things move quickly there). So I've crossposted it to Wikipedia:Reference desk/Computing. I hope someone there can help. — coelacan — 03:49, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
